AS Monaco 2013-2014 Away Shirt - James No.10 (S)

📐 Flat measurements

Lay flat a shirt that fits you well, measure it the same way and compare — vintage often sizes differently from new, and this is the most reliable way to avoid a mistake.

I would rather be direct: this shirt has been worn, and it shows in two specific areas that I photograph close up. The Fedcom sponsor has cracking and small losses along the edges of the letters (photo 5), and the Macron shoulder logos are noticeably worn, with part of the heat-pressed material gone (photo 6). On the other hand: no holes, no stains, the black has not faded, the embroidered ASM crest is flawless and the JAMES No.10 nameset is intact with no lifting. This is an honest 8/10 — a shirt to wear and collect, not a display piece, and the price reflects that.

Unsure about sizing? Macron shirts run rather small: check my vintage football shirt size guide.

✦ Authenticity guaranteed for life

Item checked by hand in my authentication workshop. If an item bought from me is ever identified as a counterfeit, I refund it in full. No expiry on that guarantee.

• Markers checked: raised embroidered ASM FC crest with the crown, period-correct heat-pressed Macron logo, “as monaco fc” printed below the collar on the back, zipped collar specific to this Macron generation
• Historical consistency verified: Macron as AS Monaco's kit supplier with Fedcom as shirt sponsor — a combination specific to this period, impossible to find on a modern shirt
• Official Ligue 1 nameset with the LFP crests built into the bottom of the numbers (photo 4) — a detail unofficial namesets consistently get wrong
• Full method: authentication guide

📖 2013-2014: the wild season on the Rock

No recent Ligue 1 season made as much global noise. This black shirt belongs to an AS Monaco freshly promoted from Ligue 2 and spending without limits to challenge PSG.

📅 Summer 2013 — the transfer window that stunned Europe. Newly promoted, Monaco signed James Rodríguez and João Moutinho from FC Porto, and Radamel Falcao from Atlético Madrid. A Ligue 1 club suddenly sat at the top of the global market.

📅 May 2014 — runners-up in France. In their first season back in the top flight, AS Monaco finished 2nd in Ligue 1 behind PSG and qualified for the Champions League.

📅 June-July 2014 — James' World Cup. In Brazil the Colombian finished top scorer of the World Cup with 6 goals and scored a volley against Uruguay that won him the 2014 Puskás Award. The whole world discovered Monaco's No.10.

📅 July 2014 — off to Real Madrid. A few weeks after the World Cup, James left Monaco for Real. He wore this shirt for one season only.

👑 James Rodríguez — Porto, Monaco, Real Madrid and Bayern: he remains one of the most gifted Colombian players of his generation. A “JAMES 10” nameset on a Monaco shirt covers just twelve months of the club's history — which is exactly what makes it rare.
